PLEASE HELP ME!! Tristen solved the equation log 3(x+1) - log 3(x-6) = log 3(2x + 2). Justify each step of solving the equation in Tristen's work below. Are both numbers solutions to the equation? Explain.
Justify each step of solving the equation in Tristen's work.
log 3(x+1) - log 3(x - 6) = log 3(2x+2)
Write the original equation
log 3(x + 1) = log 3(x-6) + log 3(2x + 2) Subtract the same logarithm from each side.
log 3(x + 1) = log 3(x-6)(2x + 2)
Power Property of Logarithms
(x + 1) = (x - 5)(2x+2)
Property of Equality for Exponential Equations
x + 1 = 2x2 - 10x - 12
Divide.
0 = 2x2 - 11x - 13
Subtract x + 1 from each side.
x=6.5 or x = -1
Apply the Zero Product Property.
Are both numbers solutions to the equation? Explain. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
O A. Only the one solution x = is correct, and it is extraneous
OB. Both solutions are correct, and the solution(s)= is/are extraneous
(Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)
O C. Both solutions are correct, and neither solution is extraneous
Click to select and enter your answer(s).

The blue whale is the largest animal living on the earth. the average blue whale measures 100 feet long (30 meters) and weighs 300,000 pounds (136,000 kilograms). a whale’s head is 1⁄3 of the length of its body. a new baby whale is 1⁄4 the length of a grown whale. the average man is 1⁄17 the length of a blue whale, and 1⁄1,818 its weight. a human baby measures 1⁄4 of the length of an adult. calculate the following information: how long is a whale’s head? how long is a new baby whale? how tall is the average man? how much does the average man weigh? how tall is the average human baby?
